[Journey to the West] Wukong purchasing

After getting the purple bamboo from the Guanyin Temple, the next thing is much easier. It didn't take much effort. Just like in the original book, Wu Kong and Zhu Bajie became the boys and girls named by the monsters, sitting on the altar.At night, the fish essence, aliased as the king of inspiration, really came to enjoy the sacrifice.

However, what he never expected was that what was waiting for him was not a virgin boy and girl with tender flesh, but Tang Xuanzang, a monk who could also recite the Longevity Sutra.

Taking advantage of the moment when the fish essence heard the Longevity Sutra, Tang Xuanzang decisively took out a bamboo basket woven from purple bamboo strips, and covered the fish essence. When the king of inspiration was covered by the basket, he immediately turned into a golden goldfish that was alive and kicking. He lay in the basket and flicked his tail. up.

A refined fish, even if it leaves the water, will not die for a while.Tang Xuanzang originally planned to capture this evil beast that harmed the people, so he asked Wu Kun to help him send it back to the Nanhai Guanyin Temple. After thinking about it, he brought back half of the basket that was handed out.

"You can't let him go like this!" Tang Xuanzang tightly held the hand carrying the basket, and the back of his white as jade hand was full of veins.

He knew that once he left behind this king of inspiration, it would be tantamount to tearing his face apart from Guanyin.

But, could they not be suspected by Guanyin if they put the fish essence back?In the eyes of the superiors, they would rather kill by mistake than let them go.No one knows whether the King of Inspiration has leaked the secret of the Longevity Sutra. They dare not bet, and neither does Guanyin.

If he were Guanyin, Tang Xuanzang almost thought for a moment before killing anyone who might know his greatest secret.The secret of the Longevity Sutra is not only related to the supremacy of Guanyin Bodhisattva in the hearts of the people, but also the reputation of the entire Western Buddhism in the Three Realms. Keeping her quiet will make her feel more at ease.

As for the candidates for the Western Paradise to learn from the scriptures?

Tang Xuanzang sneered in his heart. Without Tang Xuanzang, there would be Zhang Xuanzang, Li Xuanzang... There are so many monks with profound Buddhist teachings in the Eastern Tang Dynasty, who would not accept this supreme honor if only Guanyin Bodhisattva came forward to give advice? Task?That is the opportunity to become a Buddha that all Buddhists dream of!They don't even need to practice hard for a lifetime, as long as they get back the scriptures, they will become the real Buddhas that the whole Tang Dynasty worships madly!

Moreover, Tang Xuanzang silently glanced at Wu Kong.At that moment just now, the reason why he made up his mind to keep the King of Inspiration alive or as a hostage was because the real Monkey King had escaped from the Three Realms. Monkey King is back.

As for Wu Kong?Tang Xuanzang had an intuition that Wu Kong would definitely agree with his approach.

really!

Hearing Tang Xuanzang's decision, Wu Kun was only stunned for a few seconds, and immediately pulled a piece of cloth to firmly cover the bamboo basket: "Yes! You can't let him go back!"

It's because they have gone so smoothly all the way, they are a little arrogant and arrogant.When the fish essence was captured just now, Elder Tang personally took action. Once this matter got to the ears of Guanyin Bodhisattva, the secret of Elder Tang's rebirth would be lost!

Elder Tang's vest fell off, can he still cover it?

This fish must not be returned to Guanyin!

but--

"This thing can be regarded as a Bodhisattva's pet anyway. It can't be let go, and it can't be killed. What should I do?"

"Master, why don't you give it to me." At some point, Sha Wujing suddenly appeared outside the door.

Under the silver-white moonlight, Sha Wujing was steady and honest as usual, but the hidden light in his eyes made Tang Xuanzang couldn't help but feel a sudden in his heart: How could he forget this one?

Tang Xuanzang frowned when he thought of who was standing behind him, glanced at Wu Kong, and handed the bamboo basket to Sha Wujing.

Sha Wujing must have heard it!

Tang Xuanzang and Wu Kong looked at each other and sighed secretly. They are small people who are sandwiched between the two major forces of Buddhism and Taoism. If they offend anyone, they will die.Fortunately, the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism have always been friendly on the surface and constantly fighting in secret. Since Sha Wujing is a member of the Jade Emperor, if he thinks about it, he will take good care of the pet Bodhisattva. As for how and when to use it, that is They can't control it anymore.

Moreover, what relieved Tang Xuanzang and Wu Kong was that since Sha Wujing knew about this matter, it means that the Jade Emperor also knew about it. In the future, if the Jade Emperor wants to make a fuss about this inspiration king, he must keep them These witnesses.

Tang Xuanzang almost wanted to look up to the sky and laugh three times: he should have thought of this way of using strength to fight.It's just that Wukong suffered a lot in the hands of Tianting in his previous life, so that even he subconsciously resisted the power of Tianting. I have to say that Sha Wujing appeared at the right time.

"Thank you, Master!" Sha Wujing knew that he was showing his true self this time, but he was still not arrogant or impetuous, and he was a disciple of Tang Xuanzang. From this, it can be seen that it is not unreasonable for the Jade Emperor to send him down to be an undercover agent on the way to learn Buddhist scriptures. of.

Even if he was an undercover agent, Sha Wujing was also a humble and polite undercover agent, even though he had lost his vest in front of Tang Xuanzang.Because he knew that it was absolutely impossible for Tang Xuanzang to betray him in front of the Buddha.

It is because he personally grasped the biggest handle that can threaten Western Buddhism and Guanyin Bodhisattva.

In the past, they were just temporary mentors and apprentices who joined together, but from this moment on, they are real companions.

Or associates.

Regardless of whether Tang Xuanzang will obtain the scriptures or not, from this moment on, it is impossible for him to completely fall into Western Buddhism as the Jade Emperor feared.

No matter what kind of medicine this golden cicada reincarnated Master Xuanzang took wrongly, for Sha Wujing, such a Tang Xuanzang is undoubtedly more reassuring for him. Make a great contribution in front of the Jade Emperor!

Sha Wujing took the inspiration of the king lying silently in the bamboo basket to the Heavenly Court to return to his life. Tang Xuanzang looked at the confused Zhu Bajie, and then at Wu Kong who silently wiped off the cold sweat. His gentle and clean face suddenly bloomed. A very bright smile.

Wu Kong was dumbfounded.

No wonder so many female monsters coveted the beauty of this Elder Tang on the way to learn the scriptures. Wu Yu couldn't help but want to see Tang Xuanzang's appearance after he left the vulgar and left his hair.

"Master, what are you laughing at?" Seeing the monster being taken away by Junior Brother Sha, although he didn't know why Senior Brother didn't beat him to death with a stick, Zhu Bajie actually wanted to know why Master was smiling so happily. up!

Ever since he was with Master until now, it was the first time he saw Master smiling so, uh, recklessly?Happy?Christmas?

"It's gratifying to be a teacher, Bajie, look, now even your brother Sha can share the worries of the master, you..."

"Master, I just ate a few bunches of grapes secretly, my stomach hurts, I'll go to the latrine first." Zhu Bajie ran away as if fleeing.

"Now that the King of Inspiration is gone, shall we cross the river immediately?" The Eight Hundred Li Tongtian River is really scary to look at, and although the fish spirit has been captured by them, it is said that there are many other waters in the river. Demon, Wu Kong really doesn't want to make trouble.

"Wait for Wujing first. Also, go to the river to catch a monster and come up to ask, is there an old white turtle here that has become a spirit?"

Wu Kun was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly remembered that in the original book, Tang Xuanzang was captured by the King of Inspiration using a demon method to the bottom of the Tongtian River. After Sun Wukong asked Guanyin Bodhisattva to accept the monster, it was indeed an old white turtle at the bottom of the Tongtian River who took the initiative. Help, carry Tang Monk and apprentice across the Tongtian River.

But this old white turtle didn't help them in vain. This old guy has been refined for a long time, but he still can't change his form. , while Tang Xuanzang was thanking him, seize the opportunity and ask Tang Xuanzang, who is very likely to become a Buddha, to help him and ask the Tathagata Buddha to see when he will become an adult.

In fact, it is just an opportunity for a monster to become an adult. For many monsters, it is impossible to cultivate a human form for thousands of years. For the Buddha, it is easy, but the old Baiyuan did not expect that it took too long to walk this way. By the time Tang Xuanzang arrived in the Western Paradise, he had long forgotten about agreeing to the old white turtle, so that in the original book, Tang Xuanzang took a ride with the old white turtle on the way back from learning the scriptures. Remembering this incident, after asking, I found that Tang Xuanzang had forgotten about it, and the old white turtle went on strike on the spot in a rage, throwing Tang Xuanzang's master and apprentice from his back into the river...

"Master, how many years have passed, and besides, he is considered a victim. You don't want to take revenge on this old white turtle, do you?" Wu Kong looked at Tang Xuanzang speechlessly. Love to hold grudges.

"Where did you think you were? In my previous life, I was really sorry for this old white turtle. You go and find him, and say that I have a chance to cultivate a human form and give it to him." Tang Xuanzang said helplessly, so he still likes them the most. In Wukong's eyes, although he is a bit long-winded and pedantic, he is still a good person. Of course, he is indeed not a good person now, but who doesn't want to be a good person?

It's just that fate didn't give him the chance to be a good person.

In his previous life, he had been a good person all his life, what happened?

Thinking of Wukong's final ending, and his own tragic end with no soul to return to, Elder Tang felt that he should continue to be a bad person.

However, if you can pay back what you owed others in your previous life, this old white turtle is not a bad person, and was used by Buddhism in your previous life. The final nine-nine-eight-one difficulty, according to the fate of the old white turtle, will soon be able to cultivate a human form.Unexpectedly, by mistake, Tang Xuanzang and his disciples were thrown into the river in a moment of recklessness, destroying the scriptures and losing the chance to become an adult.

Tang Xuanzang decided to help this old white turtle. After all, this guy is a native of Heishuihe. In the future, they will still pass by here when they come back from learning Buddhist scriptures. It is good to sell this old white turtle. no?

Anyway, there was a ready opportunity, and it didn't cost him a penny, so Tang Xuanzang was happy to do this costless business.
